"Charles Thompson,
Francis Gladden Bishop, G. J. Adams, and others arose, until prophets for
a while were at a discount."

of Discourses 7:117

Since the restoration of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, there have been
those who have declared that the Lord's prophet and the members of his church have erred
and fallen. These individuals often claim that the Lord has called them to replace
the prophet and that they have been chosen to renew the church in another place. Knowing
that such men would attempt to lead his people astray, the Lord provided safeguards.
He told the Prophet Joseph Smith:

"Therefore, thou [Joseph Smith] art blessed from henceforth
that bear the keys of the kingdom given unto you; which kingdom is coming forth for the
last time. Verily I say unto you, the keys of this kingdom shall never be taken from
you, while thou art in the world, neither in the world to come; Nevertheless, through you
shall the oracles be given to another, yea, even unto the church. (D&C 90: 2-4)

This corner exists to show that the Lord's Kingdom has not been
given to another, nor ever will be. The keys of the kingdom are and ever will be
held by the president of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, the Quorum of
Twelve Apostles, and First Quorum of Seventy. Information provided here will refute
the claims of those who say that the Lord has given them a special commission to redeem
Israel and lead the elect of God out from among the Saints and the world.

We believe that most religious people pursue their religion because
they deem it to be true. Members of the churches discussed on this page are no
exception. Members of these groups are usually enthusiastic about their beliefs and
church affiliation. We believe that these people are misled and have erred regarding
what is true. We feel it is important to note the difference between the LDS Church
and these other groups. The purpose of the LDS Church is to preach the Gospel of
Jesus Christ, not to organize attacks on other churches and publish pamphlets and books
against them. On the other hand, the very existence of many of these groups and
churches is dependent solely upon their constant attacks on the LDS Church. We ask
all to consider which approach is the more Christ-like.

There are three fundamental issues that must be discussed when
examining the foundation and beliefs of these groups and churches:

An incorrect understanding of these issues provide the foundation
for most of these groups. We invite all to consider the evidence we will present and
to return to the true fold, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
